101 Things in 1001 Days v. 3 (2/101)

This is my third 101 Things list and I'm really excited to begin a new list (visit List #1 and List #2).  I wanted to do a 30 before 30 list which I started last year, but the stuff on it just became too daunting and so I ignored it. I originally started this blog to chronicle my previous lists and so that's what I will be reverting it back to.  I plan to continue the monthly updates of E until she is a year because I like being able to look back on them.
